    Yes, but you get those little jars of mayo, mustard and katsup. Very classy.

    I was staying at the South Shore Harbor Convention Center Hotel in League City, Texas, a suburb of Houston. Not wanting to go out and drive around looking for a liquor store I ordered a fifth of Jack Daniels from from service. When I wrote in a $5 tip for the guy who delivered it (good enough tip for an elevator ride to bring me an $18 bottle of booze), the delivery guy acted insulted. When I checked out of the hotel I saw that they had charged me $90 for the booze.

    I can't believe that a thread that I started over 5 years ago is still active.

    i have been to that jersey city fatburger many times, as you know, i lived a few blocks from there for years. it annoys me slightly that they kinda sing/yell your order. "fat fries, fat shake!"

    since i moved that neighborhood went nuts, with that trump tower and everything. i kinda miss it.

    in manhattan all anyone can talk about is burgers from shake shack. it is around 79th and columbus, and also at citifield, and some park downtown. it is pretty good. kinda reminds me of a rich man's version of a burger fromthe varsity in atlanta. pretty good.

    The Frostee-Freeze Drive-In in Cuba, New Mexico has a damn fine green chile cheeseburger. I drove 100 miles out of my way once just to pass through Cuba around lunch time.

    When I was in the Air Force used to go TDY to the northern range at White Sands quite often. I'd like to have a $ for every green chile cheeseburger I ate in those 4 1/2 years. :lol:

    I suspect you can count on one hand the number of "bad" green chile burgers you can get in NM.
